Legend Valve 111-273 Plastic Float Ball 5 Inch 1/4-20

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE 111-273 is a plastic float ball designed for use in float-controlled valve assemblies found in plumbing, water supply, and fluid-handling systems. The ball measures 5 inches in diameter and features a 1/4-20 threaded connection for secure attachment to the float arm. Rated to a maximum working pressure of 125 psi, this float is built for reliable service in residential and light commercial applications. Plumbers and maintenance technicians install this component as a direct replacement or service part in ballcock assemblies, tank fill valves, and similar float-operated control systems.

This float ball suits applications where a buoyant, threaded float is required to actuate a fill valve or shut-off mechanism. Common installations include water storage tanks, toilet fill assemblies, livestock waterers, irrigation holding tanks, and other gravity-fed or pressurized fluid reservoirs. The 1/4-20 thread is a standard fastener size, making this float compatible with a wide range of float arm hardware used across residential and agricultural plumbing setups.

Key Features

• 5 inch diameter provides sufficient buoyancy for standard float valve applications
• 1/4-20 threaded connection attaches directly to standard float arms
• 125 psi maximum working pressure rating suits residential and light commercial systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement float ball for float-operated fill valves and ballcock assemblies that accept a 5 inch diameter, 1/4-20 threaded float component.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified maintenance technician. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing the existing float ball. Thread the 111-273 onto the float arm by hand, then verify the arm angle and water shutoff level before returning the system to service. Follow applicable IPC guidelines for potable water system repairs when installing in drinking water applications.
